Maintaining a minimum concentration of an effective dispersant polymer is crucial in an alkaline cooling water treatment program. The problem is knowing exactly how much polymer is available in the cooling water to combat fouling and corrosion of heat transfer equipment. Many years of research and effort have gone into the development of a method for tracing the concentration of polymers. Rohm ...

Over the last five years, the European PVC industry has been forced to reassess the environmental impact of its products in the face of continuing pressure from environmental groups, governments and end users. Hydro Polymers, one of two PVC manufacturers in the UK, is forging ahead of its competitors through a partnership with sustainability consultancy The Natural Step. The company is launching ...

The fluids handled within the adhesives and sealant industries are amongst the most difficult to handle of any in the main process industries globally. The characteristics which make them particularly difficult to handle include: High viscosities (typically 1-2000 Pa.s, or 1000 to 2 million cP). Often non-Newtonian (viscosity is not constant and varies with shear rate). Some ...

When treating boiler feed water (the combination of boiler makeup and condensate return water), several issues can arise that cause boiler scaling, corrosion, fouling, and system failure. Below, we break down the most common boiler feed water issues and how to avoid them to help ensure system efficiency and operational safety. While treating boiler feed water is extremely ...

The Facility Sidi Krir Unit 3 & 4 Power Plant, developed by InterGen and Edison SpA, is located about 30 kilometers west of Alexandria, Egypt. It is a natural gas fired power plant and at 685 MW generating capacity, is the largest IPP thermal power plant in the Middle East. The plant consists of two power blocks, which share a common membrane based Seawater Desalination system ...

As more utility contractors are moving up to larger rigs, they are also moving toward the use of solids removal ( solids control ) systems. These solids control systems are not stand-alone units. They are part of the drilling mud system along with the ...

As more utility contractors are moving up to larger rigs, they are also moving toward the use of solids removal ( solid control ) systems. These solid control systems are not stand-alone units. They are part of the drilling fluids system along with the drilling fluid and the fluid pump. ...

Ion exchange (IX) systems are used across a variety of industries for water softening, purification, and separation purposes. While the chemistry of individual ion exchange reactions vary from one application to the next, IX is a treatment process where dissolved ions are replaced by other, more desirable, ions of a similar electrical charge. If you’re wondering whether IX is right for your ...

ABSTRACT In February 2005, Onondaga County (County) began operating a 492,000 m3/day (130 mgd) peak flow ballasted settling system at the Metropolitan Syracuse Wastewater Treatment Plant (Metro WWTP) for tertiary phosphorus removal. The system was designed to reduce the total phosphorus concentration in the BAF effluent from 0.75 to 0.12 milligrams per liter (mg/L). This ...

INTRODUCTION As the electronics industry continues to provide us with such products as high resolution television, notebook size portable computers and cars with automatic navigation systems, it becomes necessary to produce semiconductors with finer device geometries to allow for efficient placement of more circuits per a given area. This requires increased control of a semiconductor's material ...

Situated near Slough, in Berkshire, Aggregate Processing Solutions (APS) is operating a washing plant where Baioni has recently supplied a centrifuge system to complement the whole existing plant. Baioni has boosted the capacity of its decanter centrifuges range to pave the way for further improvements in waste ...

Whether you are looking for a microfiltration or ultrafiltration (MF/UF) membrane system that will help your facility manufacture safe food and/or beverages, boiler feed water for industrial process, or treat contaminated waste to acceptable effluent standards, it can be overwhelming to search for the MF/UF membrane system that is ideal for your specific application. MF/UF membrane systems solve ...

For industrial companies producing wastewater as part of it’s process, some type of wastewater treatment system is usually necessary to ensure safety precautions and discharge regulations are met. The most appropriate wastewater treatment system will help the facility avoid harming the environment, human health, and a facility’s process or products (especially if the wastewater ...

Ion exchange (IX) systems can be an efficient solution for various demineralization, purification, and wastewater treatment needs. In fact, IX systems deliver several advantages over chemical treatment, as they generally require less space, ...

Summary The efficient economical storage, movement, control and blending of large tonnages at coal handling installations such as mines, power plants and port facilities require new and improved designs of vibratory equipment. Environmental and investment impact as well as operational advantages must be considered in the development of any new reclaim system. ...

N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) was first detected in 1990 as a problem pollutant in drinking water wells at levels as high as 3,000 ppt in Elmira, Ontario, Canada. The waste from a large chemical plant over many years had led to the contamination of the drinking water wells for the community. After extensive evaluation and testing, it was determined that UV photolysis was the most effective ...

The Facility Andres Power Plant, developed by Caribbean Thermal Electric LLC, is located in Boca Chica, near Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. It is a 300 MW gas fired combined cycle power plant and is one of the largest IPP power plants in the Dominican Republic and will supply electricity to Corporacion Dominicana de Electricidad. The plant consists of two power blocks, which ...

Improvements in sensor and automation technology in recent years have made it possible to design a system to control the key variable parameters in and around the dewatering process. By continuously analyzing feed conditions and output from the process, an automated optimization system can make necessary proactive adjustments to the internal settings of the dewatering equipment, the polymer ...

The City of Oakley was very happy with their new MBR facility except for the filter bag sludge dewatering system that was very labor intensive and usually didn’t produce an adequately dewatered sludge. Scott Rogers of Aqua Engineering and Bob Johnson, the Operations Mgr., chose to replace the bag system with a 0.9 meter model DDP belt press system from BDP Industries. The DDP belt press ...
